Robotic Technology in Foot and Ankle Surgery: A Comprehensive Review.
Review in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Recent developments in robotic technologies in the field of orthopaedic surgery have largely been focused on higher volume arthroplasty procedures, with a paucity of attention paid to robotic potential for foot and ankle surgery. The aim of this paper is to summarize past and present developments foot and ankle robotics and describe outcomes associated with these interventions, with specific emphasis on the following topics: translational and preclinical utilization of robotics, deep learning and artificial intelligence modeling in foot and ankle, current applications for robotics in foot and ankle surgery, and therapeutic and orthotic-related utilizations of robotics related to the foot and ankle. Herein, we describe numerous recent robotic advancements across foot and ankle surgery, geared towards optimizing intra-operative performance, improving detection of foot and ankle pathology, understanding ankle kinematics, and rehabilitating post-surgically. Future research should work to incorporate robotics specifically into surgical procedures as other specialties within orthopaedics have done, and to further individualize machinery to patients, with the ultimate goal to improve perioperative and post-operative outcomes.
